Hillary was not found to be “careless.” She was found “extremely reckless” but The Justice Department finds it was not negligence.
This was not only negligence, it was gross negligence:
n. carelessness which is in reckless disregard for the safety or lives of others, and is so great it appears to be a conscious violation of other people’s rights to safety. It is more than simple inadvertence, but it is just shy of being intentionally evil. If one has borrowed or contracted to take care of another’s property, then gross negligence is the failure to actively take the care one would of his/her own property. If gross negligence is found by the trier of fact (judge or jury), it can result in the award of punitive damages on top of general and special damages.”
IMHO, Civil Suits could be brought. We were all endangered.
The money quote from Comey:
“To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who engaged in this activity would face no consequences,” Comey added. “To the contrary, those individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions.
“But that is not what we are deciding now.”
Talk about selective prosecuting!!!!!! This POS government can stick it!
Careless or negligence is irrelevant. Such persons have a duty to comply with the law, as do the rest of us. Go to hell America’s bureaucratic elite I a higher pursuit of a paycheck than justice according to the law.
See 18 USC 1924(a), the "manslaughter" equivalent for handling classified materials. The fact that the classified material has been knowingly removed and kept from it's "safekeeping place" is enough. No need for criminal intent or gross negligence.
See US v Bryan Nisimura, a 2015 case on a violation of 18 USC 1924(a).
